Groningen has built its reputation on promoting talented players, making it one of the more stable clubs in Dutch football over the years. However, the team has had a difficult season this year; they are barely holding onto their position above the relegation zone, so it will be difficult for them to maintain a positive outlook.
They have only won three of their 15 games, and their goal difference is 17-30, which shows that they don’t think outside the box when they make chances and score goals.
Spakenburg is a smaller club in the town of Bunschoten that has participated in the Dutch Cup this season. Since its inception in 1931, the club has primarily played in lower-division football throughout its entire existence.
They play in the Netherlands’ Tweede Divisie, a Third-tier league, at the moment. They are seventh in the league at the moment, but their chances of reaching the top are slim given that AFC leads the league by 14 points. Spakenburg will have more motivation when they face Groningen because they have won two matches in a row.
